We were looking at a mattress factory outlet looking at beds the other day. First, we saw some fancy queen sized beds that were quite outrageous, and in my opinion, would never fit into the regular middle class families' homes. They seemed more suited for well paid yuppies living in condos. But then, just as we were about to leave, the salesmen showed us this bed cum storage unit since we were wondering what to do with all our stuff under the bed. This bed used a hydraulic power unit to lift the massive mattress on top of it. A petite woman could do it. Besides, when it opened, it had that cool hydraulic sound. Totally impressed.
